    The source column is blank on the page.
    Ditto.

    It's as if after claiming my Paragon Rewards and hitting Tier 9, the next day, a new month was activated giving me 550 PPs.

    Ouroboro Portal

    Wait, didn't we used to have switch alts to get the right side Portal for someone to use?
  3. Oh, I didn't know Underground was going to be 2.

    Well, that's even better.

    Disappointing this is.

    And does this mean that you are still absolutely working to implement it, or, "when there's time to"?

    New EULA?

    And now we're just getting back to the same old EULA debates that have been going on for 7 years.
  6. Closed to all since Friday's update to the beta version.

    Pft. It's not like it "could involve sitting, standing, walking for long periods of time throughout the day."
  8. In I21, it will be possible to get 5 Emp Merits a day per character.

    I think this is the first time I've ever been in time to catch the 'Club' thread before it moved up to a higher target. :-)
    Eww... so close.
  10. What's 2 X 10?

    200

    Close enough. Here's your prize!

    Yeah, the idiom isn't used in the colonies, so, it was almost a gibberish title for us Usians. It might as well been Queer as Neighbors or Queer as Suburbanites.

    Has there been a change to the Ouroboro portals accessibility for anyone who doesn't already have it?
    No. Were the ones you dropped it down for you the same alignment as you? A Hero can't use a Villain's Oportal, e.g.
  13. It's daylight and no vamp access, so how can Sookie save Tara? A deal with some other entity?

    Will we see Andy's fae baby?

    What happened to Miguel's familial demon spirit?

    And what about Naomi?

    "Is Not Limited To". NCSoft can monitor for those prohibited programs but that's just the stuff they feel like listing. They can monitor for anything they please and you agree that they have the right to do it.
    And the EULA acknowledges that any and all parts may be considered invalidated by local law.

    I'm confident that if NCsoft did what you're worried about, the US Federal Government and the State of NJ would come down on them like a ton of bricks for any statutory violations and both would allow any civil suit against them to proceed.

    Zombie Man has no problems with the EULA. <click> <play>

    That's a font issue and they think they have a fix to that by forcing the use of a font that does work that can be patched server side before Head Start.

    It will only go off when Fluffy attempts to hold a foe, which will be, at best, once every 16 seconds.

    Compare that to the proc from Clouded Senses which has a chance to go off with every attack, including the damage aura (but except the Hold).

    So, not worth it, IMO.

    Badges for the new Training Arcs which are side locked.

    E.g., if they detect a bot on your computer, they will burn down your town.

    And what do you base that on?

    In the past, if technical problems kept players from getting a certain reward, the Devs have always, in every instance, extended the availability. Why would you think they would not do that in this case (if it is indeed the case)?

    The Done Club

    Reminder: If you want to still be 'done' shortly after I21 goes Live (excepting the Day Jobs), you'll need to switch sides again. So, start tilting your alignment the other way and be just one Morality Mission away from switching.
  23. Dark Servant is a debuffing Tank. And is worth having out almost all the time. Therefore, Recharge is the most important thing. You can perma Fluffy with Hasten and the equivalent of two Recharge IOs in Fluffy itself.

    Heals: Not worth enhancing. Fluffy throws them out too sporadically to count on. It's just a nice thing to have at times.

    Damage: Fluffy has two damage attacks: Chill of the Night (damage aura) and Tenebrous Tentacles. The first is unenhanceable by any means. The second is only enhanceable through sneaking in Damage with multi-aspect IOs or HOs. Not even Incarnate Musculature will enhance Tentacles' damage. So... not worth enhancing.

    Mezzes: Fluffy has a Hold (Petrifying Gaze) and an Immob (Tentacles). If you throw in a Hold enhancement, it's only going to be useful in one in five attacks. Same with Immob. It's not worth enhancing these until you can get your hands on a multi-purpose Mez Enhancer such as the HOs, Endoplasm and Peroxisome, which will only be available to slot at level 47.

    ToHit: Every attack except the Hold has a -ToHit component. That is why Fluffy is a debuffing Tank. Fluffy has a better Darkest Night than you do: -15% ToHit. And Chill is another -30%. So, it's worth it to enhance the ToHit.


    My recommendation: Go with Clouded Senses. Start with the three IOs that have Recharge. Then add in the Damage Proc. Then go for six slotting since it has the big Ranged Defense bonus.

    They change what those rewards are every few months. But, they promise to cycle back in past rewards so that no one misses out on anything permanently.
